4 weeks pregnant

[kellee909]

I am 4 weeks pregnant and me and my husband had sex and there was some vaginal bleeding is this common or does this mean there is something wrong? Is this a sign of a miscarriage?

lol sorry im slow...what she said

i hope that last post made sense? i was trying to explain that the additional blood flow down there makes it more sensitive, and depending how physical you get can cause some bleeding... but ill say it again you should still talk to the Dr about it...

It can be quite common. I would try not to worry since it did follow intercourse.  Your cervix can be more sensitive during pregnancy and be irritated by sex... I would still mention it to your doctor when you meet wit them.

But at this point, unless it turns into bright red blood or is accompanied by cramping, it is probably the result of the intercourse..

Congratulations on your pregnancy.

as long as its only a small amount of bleeding then its fine, your body has a lot more blood flow down there now so its easy to find a little blood after intercoarse... same with after the Dr checks you they give you warning that you might find a bit of spotting... if it becomes heavy or strong cramps then i would go to the Dr, or of your worried and just need to be reassured that IS a good enough reason to go... but if it isnt much and your okay to wait till your next appointment this is something you can ask about, it doesnt mean you cant have sex
